Description

Usually ship within 2 days.

The new Klipsch The Nines are an active powered speaker and feature an HDMI ARC port, so you can boost the sound coming from a compatible TV. There's also an optical digital audio input, plus a USB Type B input for connecting your computer. The stereo RCA analog audio input can be used to connect a standard line-level source like a CD player, or you can switch on the built-in phono preamp and connect a turntable. And there's Bluetooth for streaming music from your mobile device.

TheNines can easily serve as the primary speakers in your entertainment system. They have a very elegant look — with real wood veneer and metal knobs and switches — and deliver classic Klipsch sound quality. Each boasts an 8" high-excursion woofer and a 1" tweeter in the company's signature Tractrix® horn. 

There's no need for a receiver; the active speaker has a built-in amplifier that delivers 240 watts of total power — 100 watts to each woofer, and 20 watts to each tweeter. A left/right switch on the back lets you choose the speaker configuration that works best for you. They deliver plenty of low end, but there's a mono RCA output for adding an optional subwoofer if you really want to feel the bass.
